We should expect a "special message" from Deus Ex: Human Revolution tomorrow, according to an in-game message, as shown in this screenshot sent along by nin. Word is: "Human Revolutions -- Special Message Incoming / Be Ready / 2200 GMT 29 Aug."

By the way, sort of a spoiler, but I'll ask anyway : did anyone else chuckle a bit when, later in the game, they found Adam Jensen's bio on one of the computers that said he had an associates degree from the University of Phoenix?

He's got the diplomas in his office too. He has one from Ferris which is a university in Big Rapids, Michigan that is usually considered a party school. So either the joke is that Jensen went to an online college and a party school or that Phoenix and Ferris have become prestigious in the future. Or third option he's just a normal dude going to normal schools.

I don't think the joke is on University of Phoenix, just that he was a police officer. It isn't uncommon for police officers to get online degrees, as advanced degrees are often just hoops they need to jump through - where they get the degree doesn't matter, just having it does. It grants a pay raise and access to better jobs. As a result they take the path of least resistance - and why not when it's just a check in a box?

Circumstances like that are the only ones in which something as ridiculously bad as University of Phoenix make sense.

Yeah, but moments like that make me wonder if this is one of the many reasons why Prichard thinks Jensen is such a dummy.
